1950's Vintage Ice Crusher Restoration
In this video I restore a vintage ice crushing machine from the 1950s.
After dismantling I start by sandblasting the corrosion with 70 grit black aluminum oxide. I then file down any imperfections and repair a crack with aluminum weld. The inside is then powder coated flat black and the outside is powder coated Tiffany blue.
The next step was to remake the missing handle. I used spare parts I could find in the shop to construct the new handle. This thing crushes ice with ease!
I hope you guys enjoy, if you do leave a like and a comment. Subscribe if you would like to see more awesome content ;).

Pool Fountain Spout Restoration
Переглядів 4,9 тис.5 місяців тому
In this video my friend sent me his pool scuppers to be restored. I had to try different techniques to get the original brushed metal finish. Using white vinegar I was able to patina the scuppers by placing the scuppers above the vinegar in a sealed container. This allowed a chemical reaction that left the finish a beautiful finish. I hope you guys enjoy, if you do leave a like and a comment. S...
Axe Restoration and Customization | Dr Restoration
Переглядів 314 тис.6 місяців тому
In this video I restore customize an antique hewing axe. I start by removing the handle and then dipping the axe head into an electrolysis bath to remove the rust. Next I sandblast the axe head. I found the shape to be a bit boring so I decided to shape the axe head into a small battle axe shape with a spike on the back. Once the axe head was complete i carved a handle out of purple heart and t...

Wilton Vise Perfect Restortation

In this video I restore a 3 inch Wilton bullet 930 machinist vise made in 1946. The original bullet was designed in 1941. They range from sizes of 2 inches up to 8 inches. I start with disassembly and use electrolysis to remove most of the rust, after electrolysis I move on to sandblasting all the large parts. Once all the parts were cleaned up I turned my attention to the defects. I welded up ...
Rusted and Dented Helmet Restoration
Переглядів 14 тис.Рік тому
In this video I restore a Finnish M40 WWII helmet. This helmet is very dented with a lot of surface rust. I start with disassembly and then use a least tester to determine that the paint contains lead. I proceed with using paint stripper as sandblasting lead paint is very dangerous and damaging. Once all the paint is removed I sandblast the rust away to bare metal. I wanted to keep the leather ...

Uhhh wow that was great! SUBSCRIBED!
"Good Work, Doc!"
Killer job.
Thanks
Opa galera do Brasil 🇧🇷✌️
The only thing I would have changed, is that I would have replaced 1 of the wheels to a wire wheel. Other then that, it looks great!
I actually did that
Looks almost like an AT-ST from Star Wars
No doubt that you are a skilled restorer ! You did a great job on this helmet ! Also no doubt that for collection purist, your job will make them have an heart attack !
😂
👍👍👍
are you a werewolf??
Nah Im a yeti
This is how chocolate drink was invented
🤔
Restore youre hammer, your hammer its kinda rusted make it shine again, and you've been doin a good job tho
I wanna change my name to peanut butter brittle nose
Awesome restoration. Very happy to see the welding of damage instead of bondo. I'm pretty sure Wilton did not have a stocking order for Bondo back then.... Good to see a total lack of short cuts!!
What is that gas produced?
Hydrogen at the negative electrode and Oxygen at the positive electrode, don’t light and matches 😊
@@DrRestoration huh... i did this experiment but with copper acetate solution and gasses formed at the cathode (negative) but not at the anode... what could it be? (The electrolyte was made with the classic 1:1 vinegar - H-peroxide combination then the copper and finally a bit of table salt for conductivity)
Maaaan...things just aren't built how they used to be
Really tweezers?
Why get rid of rare things when you can just as easily remake an ax?
Мужик,ты такой молодец,рукодельный,а тиски такие ржавые-почисти.

Great job
Thanks mate!

Hello everyone frome Possja
what liquid did you used scrub the inside grinder with after electrolysis ?
Сподіваюся до льду долили віскі?
Great job! It was great seeing one of the Pakistani knives from my childhood turned into a beautiful artistic piece of Pakistani steel.
Do not ever again take pre ww2, ww2 or post ww2 helmets that have original paint and/or other original like liner and destroy it. There might be many helmets but its history and none should be destroyed. You should ve ashamed and learn, dont just do this again, please.
You just destroyed M40/55 Finnish helmet. Thats sad as fuck...
Very nice attention to detail on both the axe and the sheath. Also, awesome videography. Thanks for sharing.👏👏👏👏
Stunning. The shape may have changed but that as you have called her Old Girl is once again ready to be used to undertake many an excellent job. Thanks for sharing this with us. Awesome
Poor vise. Look how he overheated that tap 😂
Сделано как то неряшливо. Спуск не доведён и поверхность самого топорища не доведена до конца. Из достоинств только рукоять. А тыкву я и куском рельса разрубить могу.
This is beautiful I like it
Dr. Restoration, water quenching is not used because it can cause brittleness. Why do you not use oil?
THOR is the coolest GOD. And what a unique knife with the design. I am sure you do a great resteration. I better watch the rest of your video. And Hope you have a fantastic Easter. And if you do not celebrate. You can at least LOVE some chocolate on Sunday
Happy Easter!
Awesome restoration
Thank you!

I have a bone handle one of these, was given it in 1974 by a friend of my farther,my blade is finished in chrome still working well but the blade matiral is not that amazing but you can get a razor edge on it but it never lasts long , great work thank you
Beautiful work of art - as you changed the scales it's a restomod now. Sadly you didn't make a true double stitch on that sheath, would have made it look more even and nicer, and no grooving of the stitching line, which would make the thread sink beyond the leather surface and protect it against abrasion - overall, the sheath doesn't match the knife in make and finish. These knives were made to finish off wounded deer or other larger animals, the folding design to save space and make it less unwieldy - stabbing into the heart requires not much force, so the weak pivot gives no issues, but the massive blade was never ment for hard work like slashing or chopping, be careful.
I actually wasn't gona coment on your post. But nice work and more importantly. Tnks for the grit chart. I have never seen anyone else do this. But to be fair. Most people that watch a resteration are already knowlegeable about all that and more.
Nice, i have my grandpa's hueing ax. It's 13 in from tip to tip. I've kept it oiled but having trouble finding a new handle mine is offset but cracked. Thank you for your hard work.
Beyond just 'Great'...Awesome! Would love to be able to send you an old toolbox to restore for my dads 89th birthday if you'd be so kind as to accepting the job. Charge what you may, I trust in you fully. Please reach out. Please. Thanks sincerely.
Great, keep it up my friend I will follow your development on your channel❤
Thank you :)
Great job as always. FYI my grandfather showed me how to see how sharp your knife is. You slant your thumb at an angle and put the knife blade on the nail. If the knife slips, it's dull, but if your knife sticks it's sharp. I'm an old man now but I never forgot.
The colour you chose is perfect for that era. Great job....
Hey, from Canada. Never heard of purplr heart wood but have to say its very beautiful. Will try to find some at the shops here. Great video. Fantastic job.
You ever heard of purple fart
Hi I'm 13 and I've been finding inspiration of watching these kind of videos and I have found a knife and I restored it I am just wondering for beginner what should I start on
WOW! When you started with it I was wondering why you would have gotten it in such a shape but after you were complete I was amazed. Very Nice indeed. I am impressed. Thank you. Watching this has given me a creative mind for a few projects.
Thank you!
